Renaudat Centre Constructions, a company specializing in the construction of complex and exceptional metal structures.

The Société des Bains de Mer has launched an unprecedented, large-scale urban project that will completely redesign the profile of the famous Place du Casino.

A vast architectural project

The aim of this project is to revitalize the central site of Monte Carlo, so that these places of celebration and beauty can once again play a major role in the Principality's economic, social and cultural development.

RENAUDAT Centre Constructions, specialized in complex structural steelwork, is in charge of the metalwork for the staircases, footbridges, pergolas and an exoskeleton stabilizing the concrete structures against earthquakes. These assemblies meet complex and ambitious technical and architectural criteria, combining steel and stainless steel.

Detailed modeling

This project required the modeling of all parts: straight, straightened, fittings and bolts with a visual impact on the project.

Effective management of the interfaces between RENAUDAT's works and the other trades (concrete, facade, metalwork, etc.) proved vital to the success of the project.

Tekla BIM

  • Tekla Structures made it possible to model the entire project with a very high level of detail, corresponding to the reality of the structure.

  • Tekla BIMsight and Révit were used to exchange information with the project summary.

  • The concrete, glazing and façade models have been imported as reference models in Tekla Structures.

The project in figures

  • Total cost of structural work: 5 million

  • Steel tonnage: 460 tonnes
